The original Vaughn was built around 1902. It was originally manufactured by the Star Mfg. It is a sidewinder sideshaft design that was only built for about four months. The model is copied from the only existing engine. It has igniter ignition, side shaft, hit and miss flyweight governor, and sidewinder crank with a single flywheel. As with all Debolt model engines they are a limited production run, so the Vaughn is no longer available. Debolt offer all their model engines in 3 different options. As drawings and castings that you machine yourself. As Mechanics Kit where all the machining is done and you paint and assemble the engine. As a completed engine assembled and painted. Each engine whether as option 1, 2 or 3 is supplied with a unique serial number this one is 2055. I bought the engine to go with my other stationary engines I had at the time and was my intention to go to local rallies etc and run them. But health issues and other problems got in the way and none of what I planned to do happened and wont now sadly. She is quite a lump and getting very difficult to move now for me. I apologize for the poor quality of the clip which was taken before the days that HD was freely available and the clip has been compressed quite a bit which doesnt help its quality. Also for the base which was a temporary one I used as the one that came with it was falling apart and for the clamp as she jumped a bit each time she fired on that temp base. But was good enough to see how she run. But it does show the engine running which is better than just looking at still pictures and me saying it runs fine. Since the video clip was taken I made the base you see the engine fitted to now in the still pictures. The condition of the engine best I can tell is still excellent, I dont think the engine had done much running when I bought her and I have only run her 2-3 times for short periods. So very little if any ware has taken place. Now to some measurements. Bore is 1.75 (45mm). Flywheel 9 (228mm) diameter. Drive pulley 2.25 (57mm) diameter. Base is 18 (447mm) long, 12.5/8 (320mm) wide and 3.75 (95mm) high. The low tension coil is mounted under the base to provide the spark as can be seen in the photo. There are 2 terminals on the rear of the base for the battery connection, one marked red for positive and the other black for negative, please note that battery must be no more than. Otherwise it will damage the coil and they are expensive to replace as well as spoiling your enjoyment of running the engine. The brass fuel tank does have a drain plug underneath so you can empty the tank once running is finished and before moving the engine (see photo). I have used ordinary petrol when running the engine, some say use Colemans fuel, but she seemed to run just fine on standard petrol. Not sure how long she will run on a tank full, being a hit and miss should be quite sometime, but have never run the engine long enough to find out. There is an adjustable glass drip feed lubricator for the cylinder and oil cups for all the other bearings on the engine, although the big end is a grease type lubricator. The engine is heavy weighing in at about 25 kilos before packing and will be packed in a wooden box for maximum protection during transit. So the expected total weight will be around 35 kilos, I wont know the exact weight till the box is made and the box wont be made till I know if the engine needs packing. I do pack everything I sell very carefully and will do my best with the engine as safely as possible, no one wants to receive damage goods, but of course I have no control on how its handled once it leaves me. So for example meeting at the. Services on the M4 is about 100 miles from my home. I have included with the listing a good selection of photos and of course do take a look at the video clip as well. But if you would like more photos of have any questions do please let me know. Thanks for looking and why not treat yourself to an early Christmas present. I also have a 90% complete Edger T Westbury Model Aveling DX roller I will be listing. The item “NOT LIVE STEAM. DEBOLT MACHINE INC.
